And the sms they send after sending the money had no transaction reference alphanumeric code like in mpesa so u can track your transaction.
Sometimes you never get an sms notification from your bank.
sad

Same here. Used it without hitch. Note in some cases, like Coop, of you use their phone number, it goes to mobile wallet. Otherwise, if you use account number, it goes to their bank.

Uptake of Pesalink is definitely a great alternative to expensive MPesa.

i have been trying to use this thing for the last one week but keep getting tossed between the sending and receiving bank when the transaction fails. gave up and went back to MPESA

Pesalink works seamlessly using Standard Chartered but when I try and use it with Barclays the transaction never goes through. I used online banking in both cases.

It would be beneficial for Pesalink to avail the different rates banks charge for using this service on its website. For example, StanChart charges as per the below schedule:

Transaction Amount Range Charge Amount
1 Kes 10- Kes 500 NIL
2 Kes 501- Kes 10,000 KES 40
3 Kes 10,001 – Kes50,000 KES 80
4 Kes 50,001-Kes 100,000 KES 120
5 Kes 100,001- Kes 200,000 KES 160
6 Kes 200,001 –Kes 500,000 KES 200
7 Kes 500,001-Kes 999,999 KES 250
